Abstract

A system for detecting and recording eye-tracking data by presenting to an observer a display image with an area in focus surrounded by blurred areas. The observer may shift the focus area within the image by head movements which are wirelessly transmitted to a receiver and used to modify the displayed image. This system solves that part of the eye-tracking problem that is most critical for measuring cognitive processes.
